REMEMBER: The written public service announcement of 1:30 is due on Tuesday. If you need me to edit for you, I need the work no later than Monday in class.
For your event, you will write a press release. See below for the format.
A press release, news release, media release, press statement or video release is a written or recorded communication directed at members of the news media for the purpose of announcing something claimed as having news value. Typically, they are mailed, faxed, or e-mailed to assignment editors at newspapers, magazines, radio stations, television stations, and/or television networks. Commercial press release distribution services are also used to distribute them.
